Found it: wrapped up inside a transfer update. I’m going all out with this prediction..... not one of those named in that article will be with City next season. Including DH.

If so, worth sending Joe (and others with long term problematic injuries) to the Bears med team for assessment....and a 2nd opinion? That's a simple and obvious thing for a well run sporting umbrella organisation to facilitate. No chance Bristol Sport would do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realise that that comment is tongue in cheek but I doubt you or many of us know how the two physio departments liaise but as there’s no difference in the treatment and approach between football and rugby injuries I daresay they communicate probably on a daily basis - one advantage of being under one sporting umbrella.

Alessandro Posted January 7, 2021 Report Share Posted January 7, 2021 What does that statement actually mean? It's so vague and almost throwaway. The medical staff are frustrated with him, or him with them? Have they made mistakes or is he holding back in his rehab, reluctant to do what's asked? I know people are desperate for information or reasons for William's absence, so can see why this would draw attention and no doubt the EP will jump on the clickbait bandwagon, we'll see if Gregor has anymore specific details or more speculation.

Dolman_Stand Posted January 7, 2021 Report Share Posted January 7, 2021 Been saying for a couple of years now there is a fundamental problem with our Medical Department, we have had too many injuries for too long now for it to be just bad luck.

MATT BCFC Posted January 7, 2021 Report Share Posted January 7, 2021 I find it hard to believe the club wouldn't have known the seriousness of the injury before they sold Morrell and let Palmer to go out on loan. Fair enough players get injured but you do have to question the club's thinking sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to argue. Especially as can’t recall too many that were just unfortunate impacts or landings. Think O’Dowda against Hull was just bad luck and Fam against Palace(I think?)too. A lot of injuries in training too. Idk seems a lot of bad luck with injuries and it does feel like we never get anyone back when they initially say. Baker was out until Christmas wasn’t it? Just now starting running on grass. Mawson a pleasant surprise though but he went back to Fulham first Feels easy to attack the club with anything at the minute tbf to them. The injuries have been ongoing for years now though. Needs looked at again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rolls came from Arsenal, Proctor Oxford United. Gill O'Shea/Holt has been here 20 years. Jonathan Williams is club doctor of City, Bears and Glos CCC. Patrick Orme is head of fitness/conditioning. Came from Liverpool 1st team 4 years ago. Take your pick! What's the common denominator there, I wonder? Gregor reports that Rolls is a long-term acquaintance of Ashton.

Gregor reports that Rolls is a long-term acquaintace of Ashton. Proctor was at Oxford United at the same time Ashton was CEO (2014/15). From the article by Gregor “Andy Rolls was recruited as head of performance in the summer of 2018 from Arsenal after CEO Mark Ashton brought in a long-term acquaintance, with Andrew Proctor as lead physiotherapist.” I have been a long term MA supporter for his ability to get the club top fees for players. He kind of set the precedent for champ clubs getting big fees. However, that is now set and other teams like Brentford can do the same. Then you realise all the other decisions MA is involved in like hiring staff, overseeing recruitment and making most of the most important decisions. The only people/person to blame more than MA is the guy that hired him. Starting to think LJ did a lot better than we give him credit for. Like Mourinho finishing second with United a few years ago. Hell of an achievement when you see the decisions non football people are making at that club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
